You calling the Aussie accent weird?

You Americans have a funny accent. Strewth, yours is stranger than us Ossies.
Impossible to describe though. Just funny different.

I find the Australian Accent on my sister really strange, she went out there years ago just after she got married. I always dissolve into giggles at her (but out of slapping range) if she’s here in Scotland for a visit.
She finds it strange that I still have my sing song lyrical Western Isles Brogue, but I never lost it, despite being on the Mainland for so long.

I love all accents - although I sometimes have problems understanding them! One of my neighbours is Italian and when she gets excited and talks fast I really can’t follow what she is saying. My favourite accent is Southern Irish - but I could be prejudiced as I had the good sense to marry a man from Southern Ireland!
